SUMMARY:"Less is More — Toward Efficient Vision Transformers in Perception and Reasoning" Seminar
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the CS & CIVS Distinguished Speaker Seminar presented by Professor Yang Ni. \nThe remarkable success of recent large foundation models stems from the versatility of the transformer architecture and large-scale pre-training on massive multimodal datasets. Originally introduced in natural language processing\, the attention-centric transformer design has become the dominant paradigm across domains. \nMore recently\, transformers have emerged as the backbone of modern computer vision models. However\, when high-resolution images are processed\, they are decomposed into thousands of tokens\, orders of magnitude more than typical text inputs\, causing the quadratic computational complexity. \nTo address this challenge\, current research has focused on reducing the number of image tokens participating in attention. A central question then arises: which tokens truly carry essential information\, and which can be safely pruned? \nThis talk provides an overview of recent advances in token reduction strategies for efficient transformers\, with an emphasis on large vision-language models (LVLMs) where perception and reasoning are deeply integrated. \nLocation \nCIVS Theater\, Powers Building\nHammond Campus
